Today's Quote


Thinking about all the bullshit narratives the Press Poodles came up with to explain how so many Americans decided to jump on the Cult45 wagon.

Here's a Twitter account (@JuiusGoat) - aka: AR Moxon - with a fair take on it.

Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but because they hoped for restored patriotism; or out of a sense of economic anxiety; or a hope to preserve their religious values; or dislike of their opponents; or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.

That word is "Nazi". Nobody cares about their motives.

They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval to it. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after.


Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?
